-No deal from Anaheim. The $3.5M retention & taking back Holl to make the cap work is easily worth the 3rd. Niemela's not a bad prospect, but all any other team that wants Klingberg is going to have to do is offer a single 1st round pick and they'll beat this deal.
-Depends on how much the Hawks like Voit, I guess. A late 6th is basically giving them a scratch-off ticket, and Engvall holds little value to them beyond being a warm body. Voit's put up video game numbers through 21 in the OHL but it's also his age-19 season - you'd hope he's putting up great numbers playing against 16 and 17 year old kids. Personally, I want to see it happen in the AHL before I get too excited about a 5'9" winger.
